Label style not working in IE 8.0

[Sumeeeeeet Chakraborty]

Hello Friends,

I am trying to apply styles to Labels in GWT, the below code works fine in google chrome but when I try to execute the same on IE 8.0 or Firefox, the styles just do not apply. I am using the DOM.setStyleAttribute() method to apply the styles,below is a sample code which runs on google chrome but not on IE

Label name = new Label();
DOM.setStyleAttribute(name.getElement(), "font-weight", "bold");
name.setText(Messages.INSTANCE.name() + ": " + operatorName);

Can anyone of you please tell me as to where I am going wrong? GWT version which I am using is 2.2.0

Regards,
Sumeet C

Following Code snippet should solve your purpose:

name.getElement().getStyle().setFontWeight(FontWeight.BOLD);
